Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Antiferroelectrics are essential ingredients for the widely applied piezoelectric and ferroelectric materials: the most common ferroelectric, lead zirconate titanate is an alloy of the ferroelectric lead titanate and the antiferroelectric lead zirconate. A ...
Strain response of polycrystalline barium titanate (BaTiO3) was investigated under high unipolar electric field (0 to 4 kV/mm) and compressive stress (0 to 400 MPa) in the temperature range from 25 to 160 degrees C. In the vicinity of the Curie point (T-C) ...
The influence of flexoelectric coupling on the internal structure of neutral domain walls in the tetragonal phase of perovskite ferroelectrics is studied. The effect is shown to lower the symmetry of 180 degrees walls which are oblique with respect to the ...
This thesis consists of a theoretical analysis of charged domain walls in ferroelectrics based on Landau theory and the theory of semiconductors. First, the internal structure of a 180-degree charged domain wall is considered. It is shown that different re ...
Interdigitated electrode (IDE) systems with lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films play an increasingly important role for two reasons: first, such a configuration generates higher voltages than parallel plate capacitor-type electrode (PPE) structures, a ...

In this work, the effect of introducing tetragonal yttria-stabilized zirconia (TZ) particles in soft [Pb0.98Ba0.01][(Zr0.53Ti0.47)(0.98)Nb-0.02]O-3 (PZT) was investigated. Both microstructure and electrical properties of the PZT-xTZ (x = 0, 2, 5, 10, 20 vo ...
Longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient of a twinned ferroelectric perovskite material with an array of partially compensated head-to-head and tail-to-tail 90-degree domain walls has been studied by phase-field simulations in the framework of the Ginzburg-L ...
The role of long-range strain interactions on domain wall dynamics is explored through macroscopic and local measurements of nonlinear behavior in mechanically clamped and released polycrystalline lead zirconate-titanate (PZT) films. Released films show a ...
A first-principles-based effective Hamiltonian technique is developed to study flexoelectricity in (Ba0.5Sr0.5)TiO3 thin films of different thicknesses in their paraelectric phase. The magnitude as well as sign of individual components of the flexoelectric ...
The contribution of non-180 degrees domain wall displacement to the frequency dependence of the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient has been determined experimentally in lead zirconate titanate using time-resolved, in situ neutron diffraction. Under sub ...
